Workshop 2: Coppersmithing 102

We'll spend 3 days together (roughly 21 hours) in class building cookware from scratch with 1700s and 1800s methods and equipment. You'll create copper cookware you can actually use and more. Come on over, use my hard-to-find tools, and build usable kitchenware! This is also your chance to make a custom lid for an odd shape, create something you've been wanting to build for ages, or get hands-on time with the tools themselves. The workshop is held in person at my Fredonia, Wisconsin copper shop. It includes snacks and refreshments, three catered meals, and dinner out with me!
